Whenever parts go up, it impacts pricing. Whenever parts go down, it impacts profit

I’m not surprised that they are against it but very surprised that they so blatantly expose their reasoning. If you don’t buy my product, it’s not good for me, therefore it is not a good idea 🤷

It’s a sliding slope though. The initial reasoning is fair. But it will eventually spread to other features like (potentially) creating and owning servers or holding administrative and moderation roles

It’s the same with the chat control currently looking over EU. Nobody can say that they are against efforts to stop CSAM. The issue is that the efforts don’t limit themselves to fighting that. Likewise the age verification on Discord does not seem to be targeted or limited to certain content. They are leaving the door open to use it any way they want

The real problem is, that the majority of users won’t change, and it’s the users that make Discord. There could be a much better alternative but if users are too lazy to change, it is worth nothing.

This is the case with Facebook messenger too. There are great alternatives, but it’s messenger that has the userbase

The problem is not the lack of alternatives but the lack of users using the alternatives

Not sure if this helps, but don’t you need to right click and under permission allow it to run as a program?

Then I can often just double click and run

I only use the terminal to resolve issues. This was more often at the start, when I just swifted from windows but now I rarely use it.

That said, I have no idea what I’m doing. I only copy paste commands that I find online or what they tell me to use in the forum/discord

I use Mint

This was the best farcry there was

My partner is like this. Fully functional until they went down with stress because of the effort it takes to appear normal.

It took several years to come out of, and to figure out that there is an autism diagnosis behind it

The god thing is, that living in a socialistic country, with proper social welfare they were offered to work 10 hours a week and the state would compensate for the remainder of the wage to equal a full time employment

You’re only normal until things start falling apart. I think it’s important to not try too hard to be what you aren’t

They have always had great hardware, just terrible software so it really is not worth it

Big tech has never seen common people as anything but data. It’s funny they now are concerned for what will happen to us if their bubble bursts

I went down the rabbit hole because it isn’t a word either… It stands for Special Containment Procedures

God I hate abbreviations… Especially in a long post where the poster obviously doesn’t mind typing… SCP, MC, DDLC, VN,… 🤦

Just dont use Reddit already

Who really needs this? To watch facebook ads and TikTok spam

A few hours, when you know what you’re doing. A few month when you have to figure it out, and maybe even then, it won’t work, or you’ll have lost a lot of money trying.

This should be a lot easier to do, than it is

Honestly, I haven messed with any of this. I just installed Mint, made sure everything works and haven’t messed with it since. It’s a tool and nothing more. It is also the reason why I left Windows. They were trying to force too many features and ads on something that I didn’t want to be more than an operating system

The main customization has been that i added app snap store for the software that I couldn’t find in the default software store

Don’t underestimate the pride of people who make poor decisions and how much it hurts them when a rookie spots them

I believe that Ive lost 2 maybe 3 jobs because of this
